Pepito is a chic gourmet restaurant that specialises in gourmet sandwiches, just like its name which is called after the scrumptious steak sandwich in Spanish. It’s a looker, with decor that elegantly blends classic bistro with retro industrial, cleverly mixing up antiques with wrought-iron details and Modernist touches. And if you aren’t into the bread-and-filling thing, there’s also a wide selection of souped-up tapas such as ox tail bombas, anchovy ceviche and the delicious tuna tartare with strawberry and avocado. The front bar will take care of those on a liquids-only diet.

The rambling dining rooms at the ‘house of teaspoons’ have been packing ’em in since 1786. The secret to this restaurant’s longevity is a straightforward one: honest, hearty cooking and decent wine served at the lowest possible prices. Under huge oil paintings and a thousand signed black-and-white photos, diners munch sticky boar stew, tender pork with prunes and dates, goose with apples, partridge escabeche and superbly fresh seafood.

Packed to the rafters with dusty bottles of wine, this classic but minuscule bar makes up for in tapas what it lacks in space. The specialities are 'conservas' (shellfish preserved in tins), which aren't always to non-Spanish tastes, but the 'montaditos' (sculpted tapas served on bread) are spectacular. Try salmon sashimi with cream cheese, honey and soy, or cod, passata and black olive pâté. Get there early for any chance of a surface to put your drink on.

This forward-thinking tapas restaurant uses the finest ingredients to create its legendary local fair. A poached egg is accompanied by potato purée intensely flavoured with white truffle here, and the succulent baby goat is oven-roasted with green onions. The locally caught gambes (prawns), done a la plancha with a little sea salt, are delicious, but expensive.
